Internship | Disaster proof 3D printed buildings
3 maanden geleden
About this position
How can we design a resilient, disaster proof and low carbon-footprint building with use of 3D printing of concrete (3DCP)? 3DCP has been gaining a lot of traction in the last decade, quickly sizing up from architectural elements to large buildings, bridges and other infrastructure. It offers unique design opportunities and allows for largely automated construction. 3DCP can significantly reduce the carbon footprint of a building, by reducing the amount of concrete needed, integrating structural elements, optimising geometry for structural design and using locally sourced materials (e.g. sand, gravel). The aim of this MSc graduation project is to explore how to use 3DCP for resilient building design that can withstand natural disasters (e.g. fire, hurricane, earthquakes) and human-made threats (explosions, gunfire). The project is a collaboration between TNO and the TU Delft Faculty of Architecture & the Built Environment.
What will be your role?
The thesis topic is broadly formulated, and will be tailored based on your interests and background. A few areas that are particularly relevant for the design of disaster proof 3DCP buildings:
Design development by theoretical and numerical methods; Development of fabrication methods and validation with prototypes; Load testing in laboratory (e.g. static, dynamic, ballistic/blast).You will perform this assignment in TNO’s department of Personal Protection and Explosives Safety (PPES). Our field of research is unique and challenging. We are engaged in the development and testing of protection concepts for people and critical infrastructure against ballistic threats and explosions. In addition, we work on safe storage, transport and transshipment of ammunition. With our support, new protection technologies are developed that are ultimately used by Defence, the Police and civil domains.
What we expect from you
You are in the final stages of your master’s degree in architecture, structural engineering or a related field and are interested in the field of building design for extreme environments. You can develop new designs based on analytical and numerical methods. You are also interested in the practical side of the problem, like developing fabrication methods and building prototypes to validate your models. One of the possibilities is to perform ballistic testing on 3DCP prototypes at the TNO facility in The Hague Ypenburg. Finally, you are able to concisely report your scientific findings.
What you'll get in return
You want an internship opportunity on the precursor of your career; an internship gives you an opportunity to take a good look at your prospective future employer. TNO goes a step further. It’s not just looking that interests us; you and your knowledge are essential to our innovation. That’s why we attach a great deal of value to your personal and professional development. You will, of course, be properly supervised during your work placement and be given the scope for you to get the best out of yourself. Furthermore, we provide:
A highly professional, innovative internship environment, within a team of top experts. A suitable internship allowance ( euro for wo-, hbo- and mbo-students, for a full-time internship). Possibility of eight hours of free leave per internship month (for a full-time internship). A free membership of , where you can meet other TNO professionals and join , such as sports activities, (work-related) courses or the yearly ski-trip. Use of a laptop. An allowance for travel expenses in case you don’t receive an OV-card.-
